Seconded. My favourite story about Arlott relates to when he found himself being required to fill out an immigration form on a plane travelling to Johannesburg during the apartheid years. In response to a question enquiring about the passenger's " race", Arlott simply wrote "human".

No, BBC. They aren't turning to christianity. They've just discovered a new way to express their islamophobia.

Another neutral BBC story where a bishop from an obscure denomination is treated as credibly as the Archbishop of Canterbury.
I'd never even heard of them... :roll:

I remember the rush to convert to Catholicism when women priests were allowed in the Anglican church by some high profile individuals at the time - looks like they had a solution in their midst all along.

Well, if anyone wants to learn about them: https://confessinganglican.church/what-is/

Edit: what a surprise, they're based in Tennessee.

I'm just face-palming and reminding myself of that Harry Dean Stanton line;

"You a Christian? Don't want no Christians in my car!"

(from the film "Repo Man", m'Lud.)

That was a lot to do with the man who organised the event, Robinson - real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon - the far-right figure who says he recently found Christian faith while in prison.
And I recently found Shergar ridden by Lord Lucan. Thought up his latest grift in nick more like.

According to the I, which has been investigating the channel crossers popping over to intimidate Parisian homeless people, and claim to slash up some inflatables, one of those involved runs a "sex doll rental company".

Just WTF, what the fucking fuck is wrong with these people? Answers on a postcard, or scrawled on the wall of your local piss dungeon.

Wot?
I have never been tempted by sex dolls but I am certain that, should that ever change, I will buy my own spanking new clean one rather than boldy go where hundreds of mucky buggers have gone before.
